As construction season begins, Manitoba's plan for highway upgrades and rebuilds includes more than 800 capital projects worth $4.1 billion, including 525 highways projects.
Construction will begin tomorrow on a busy intersection southeast of Winnipeg, causing traffic delays. The intersection of the Trans-Canada Highway at Provincial Road (PR) 207, also known as Deacon’s Corner, will undergo reconstruction. Flagpeople will control traffic May 23 beginning at 9 a.m. until 6 p.m. Once the temporary shutdown is complete, traffic control signage.
